• Randy Orton Takes Brutal Shot At NXT Wrestlers While Praising IShowSpeed
Popular streamer IShowSpeed visited the WWE Performance Center and stepped inside the ring for the latest episode of the “Speed Goes Pro” series, getting hands-on training from some big names, while a packed room of NXT wrestlers watched.
Speed was guided through in-ring fundamentals by Sheamus, Matt Bloom, and Fit Finlay. He learned how to run the ropes, bump, sell, and eventually created his own finisher, a moonsault he calls the “Speed Drop.”
During the episode, Randy Orton showed up to meet Speed and watched his match with Kam Hendrix (Anthony Luke from WWE LFG), the real-life fiancé of Women’s Intercontinental Champion Maxxine Dupri. The Viper didn’t hold back and told Speed the following during the bout:
“Good sh*t. You’ve got more personality than anybody sitting in this f**king auditorium. Keep doing what you’ve been doing.”
The 14-time World Champion also believes that Speed has what it takes to become a WWE Superstar.
“He is ready. We’ve got something here. Mentally, he’s there. Physically, he’s got everything it takes. If he wants to stick with this journey, through hard work and dedication, he could one day be a full-time WWE superstar, if he wants it.”
• WrestleMania 42 Main Event Will Be Clear After Survivor Series 2025
As seen on this week’s RAW, Roman Reigns teased becoming a World Champion again during his segment with Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk.
According to Ibou of Self Made, the main event of WrestleMania 42 will be clear very soon:
“I had been told by someone close to the situation about two weeks ago that the plan was to make the WrestleMania main event clear coming out of WarGames and on the week of television following Survivor Series.
I’d imagine it’d be similar to when they had Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns face off on the fall 2023 SmackDown season premiere to tell you that was still on track for WM40.”
Earlier today on ESPN First Take, Paul Heyman said the following:
“[Survivor Series] is really an infomercial for WrestleMania. Because, as you must know by now, there’s such a huge publicity push out there that the individual tickets for WrestleMania Saturday and WrestleMania Sunday go on sale on Black Friday.
So we are out there just showing the world, ‘Hey, check out this spectacle. Check out what WWE is about, and our biggest show of the year, WrestleMania, individual tickets going on sale.’
This is our audition for the world to come to Vegas for WrestleMania, at the same time, giving the most bang for the buck and the greatest WarGames of all time.”
